You can try to go to the power settings and adjust to brightness of your portable system. There should be a battery icon on the lower right portion of your computer, double click it and you should have the power setting. On the bottom portion, there should be a lever where you can set the brightness higher. if this does not work try to adjust contrast in the nVidia Control Panel (assuming you have an nVidia card).

reboot your pc, and press F8 when the system finish displaying the system manufacturing details choose safemode and press enter. after booting to desktop, run a system restore on your windows to the date your system was working fine.

I see. Try to restore your system to a day the last time your toggle is working. If that did not work try to reinstall your drivers. specifically for your video card and the utility for your keyboard shortcuts.

I have the same card....and my PC stops responding from mouse movements sometimes, but not anymore. I found that if I always use the HIBERNATE feature of Windows, that my video problems vanish, so I think the problem is related to video RAM, but not sure, because virtual memory caching plays a large role during wake from hibernate. Also ensure that BIOS video settings are not too extreme, go with the normal or default video settings.
